Poet Introduction
Hurt me once, I'll Hurt you twice...Hurt me Twice I'll hurt you for life
Vengeance
From the seeds of time and wind swept promises, to the very existence of fairytales. Dreams of love and sugar plum kisses,spinning around in twisted tales in our minds. From romance and love, to betrayal, hate, and disgust of the very ones we love.
What makes a good person go bad? Turn into some kind of monster, beast they've never known was inside of them. Lies, manipulation, betrayal of the very things we hold close and dear to us. From the inner depths of our soul we find strength, courage to help pull us through.
Be it beast from hell, or the sweet kind princess, who always...

Shattered Soul
Underneath the surface, lies the face of hidden emotions. Buried deep underneath the wall of intensity. Emotions, feelings, words left unspoken and half spoken truths. Beneath the tears, beneath the fake smiles, the pretending that everything is OK. Lies the truth, of a broken, shattered soul.
Left to wonder, left to wander, thinking if there will be an end to this relenting pain. The will to change what might be, what has not yet been written in today's reality. The pretending everyday, everything is OK, when in reality; it is farther from the truth then anyone will ever know. ...

"Dreams of You "
My dreams of you how they call to me, yet your name rings louder. How I long to hold you, and be with you now and forever. And I wonder how it is that I can miss someone so much,and crae so passionately your touch, that I have never known before. How is it that my heart can yearn soo much for a love that I have imagined my entire life. When it is standing right in front of me. I chase after it, flying behind a passion soo strong it takes me away from myself, and into your arms; where I belong. And you,how you are as an angel sleeping,so weary from the day and desiring another moment with me. ...

Love Me
Dedicated To the Love of my life, we may be far apart but your forever in my heart....
"I ask the impossible: love me forever.
Love me when all desire is gone.
Love me with the single mindedness of a monk.
When the world in its entirety,
and all that you hold sacred advise you
against it: love me still more.
When rage fills you and has no name: love me.
When each step from your door to our job tires you—
love me; and from job to home again, love me, love me.
Love me when you’re bored—
when every woman you see is more beautiful than the...

Drowning
(Dedicated to my son Matthew, I love you and I'm glad your alive)
Sun shinning on the water, glistening dancing upon the water.
Going down the slide, plunging in deep going straight down
going under, can't breathe, fighting,fighting to stay alive
getting tired,so very tired, giving up, can't reach the top
can't move, getting light headed and dark
Sinking, falling to the bottom
Darkness closes in
as I close my eyes
terrified
then peace sets in.
Next thing I know
I am being shocked by EMS
heart is beating again
as I open my...

Life, relationships, friends
font=Georgia]"Do you ever wonder why sometimes we let some people close to us ? We let our guard down and just when you think its safe and everything is ok..this feeling over comes you. You meet someone, you become friends, you fall in love. Sometimes being friends is easier from a far. Never expecting to have a broken heart. Loving your best friend can be the best thing in the world, or it can be the worst thing in the world. You open yourself up, expect nothing in return, accept them as they are with all their faults , no questions asked because thats the kind of person you are. you...

Love and Friendship
Love and Friendship is difficult when combined in a relationship.
It can be the most wonderful thing, or it can be the hardest thing in the world.Complications and insecurities lead into disagreements and arguements.
Its one door swinging open and one door swinging closed. It's all the things being left unsaid.It's the not knowing when it will all end, when it will all come crashing down.
We spend our lives learning,making friendships,learning from our own mistakes. Has the lessons been learned, or do we do it all over again? When you give all your heart and soul then it...

~FRIENDSHIP~
Friendship ~
Two people choose each other through some mysterious mix of alchemy and circumstance. On the surface, the reason for the choice seems obvious they share our interests, they make us laugh. But, is there more to it then that ? Do we ever stop to wonder why this person and not another?
Friendship begins when two people choose each other. But what happens when we outgrow the choice ? Little by little our paths diverge, our needs change and one day we wake up and realize we need to choose something different.
Sometimes with friendships you have to ask yourself is it...

Life's Journey
Life's journey has but many roads, many twists and turns
for each road you take leads you down a different path.
Regrets and what if's many of us have.
Wonders of yesterday and what might have been's
Only If.........
Is something we all think of.
The years fly by, and you never truly realize.
If only.....
History of life events shape us into the adults we have become.
Some married with families, some single and all alone.
Until one day someone breaks down your walls,
and a crack you will see... leading to your vulnerability.
